Thorough Home Inspections for Rochester Properties

A property inspection is more than a quick walkthrough. We review accessible areas and major home systems to identify visible conditions that may affect safety, maintenance, or future repairs.

Our home inspection services can include the roof, attic, structure, electrical system, plumbing, heating and cooling, interior and exterior components, insulation, windows, doors, and other accessible parts of the property.

With a clear digital report and photos of findings, you can better understand the condition of the home and determine which items may need attention.

Full Home Inspection in Rochester, MI

A full home inspection provides an overall look at the major components of a residential property. It can be especially helpful when purchasing a home, but homeowners and sellers can also benefit from understanding the current condition of the property.

A typical inspection may review:

  • Foundation and visible structural components
  • Roof and attic
  • Exterior surfaces
  • Interior rooms and accessible areas
  • Plumbing systems
  • Electrical components
  • Heating and cooling systems
  • Windows and doors
  • Insulation and ventilation
  • Moisture-related conditions
  • Decks and accessible exterior structures
  • Visible safety concerns

The purpose is to give you useful information about the property rather than simply pointing out problems.

Pest Inspection and WDO Inspection

Pests can cause damage that is not always obvious during a regular home viewing. Our pest inspection looks for visible evidence of common pest activity and conditions associated with pest problems.

Depending on the property, the inspection may look for signs of:

  • Termites
  • Carpenter ants
  • Rodents
  • Wood-destroying organisms
  • Other common household pests

A residential pest inspection can be added when you want a closer look at potential pest-related concerns.

Mold Inspection and Mold Testing

Moisture and mold concerns can affect different parts of a property. Our mold inspection looks for visible signs of mold-like growth, moisture conditions, and areas that may require additional investigation.

When mold sampling is appropriate, samples can be collected for laboratory testing. This can provide additional information when visible conditions or moisture concerns warrant further evaluation.

Radon Gas Testing in Rochester, MI

Radon is an invisible and odorless gas that can enter buildings from the ground. Our radon gas testing service uses certified equipment to measure indoor radon levels.

Testing can be useful for home buyers, homeowners, and others who want information about radon conditions inside a property.

Roof and Attic Inspection

The roof and attic can provide important information about the condition of a home. During an inspection, accessible areas are reviewed for visible signs of damage, deterioration, moisture, leaks, ventilation concerns, and other conditions.

A roof inspection can help identify areas that may need maintenance or further review by a roofing professional.

Drone Roof Inspection

Certain roof sections can be difficult or unsafe to view closely from the ground. Drone inspection can provide aerial images of roof surfaces and other exterior areas when weather and safety conditions permit. This approach can add useful visual information without requiring unnecessary access to difficult roof areas.

Roof Inspection in Rochester, MI

Our roof inspection in Rochester, MI checks accessible roofing components for visible damage, wear, leaks, and other concerns. A roof and attic inspection may include accessible roof surfaces, flashing, vents, attic areas, insulation, and signs of moisture. We can also provide a drone roof inspection when aerial views are helpful for difficult-to-reach roof areas.

4-Point Home Inspection

A 4-point home inspection focuses on four major systems of a property:

Roof: Review of visible roof conditions.

Electrical: Inspection of accessible electrical components.

Plumbing: Review of accessible plumbing systems and visible concerns.

Heating and Cooling: Examination of accessible heating and cooling equipment.

This focused inspection can be useful when you need information about these four major areas of a home.

Moisture and Water Damage Inspection

Moisture can come from plumbing leaks, roof problems, drainage issues, condensation, or other sources. Our moisture inspection looks for visible evidence of excess moisture and water damage.

We may identify staining, damp areas, deterioration, or other conditions that suggest further investigation could be necessary.

Early identification of moisture concerns can help homeowners address potential problems before they affect additional parts of the property.

Plumbing Inspection

The plumbing system is an important part of a residential property. Our plumbing inspection reviews accessible pipes, fixtures, drains, supply lines, and other visible components. We look for visible leaks, damage, improper conditions, and other issues that may need attention. For buyers, this inspection can provide useful information about the property’s existing plumbing system before purchase.

Electrical System Inspection

Our electrical system inspection reviews accessible components for visible damage, safety concerns, and other conditions that may require additional evaluation. The inspection may include accessible electrical panels, outlets, switches, visible wiring, and other components within the scope of the inspection. If a finding requires specialized electrical work, further evaluation by a qualified electrician may be recommended.

New Construction Home Inspection

New construction homes can benefit from an independent inspection before closing. A new construction inspection provides another opportunity to identify visible issues or incomplete items. We review accessible structural, electrical, plumbing, roofing, mechanical, interior, and exterior components and document conditions that may need to be discussed with the builder.

Home Energy Inspection

Energy performance can affect both comfort and household costs. A home energy inspection looks for visible conditions that may contribute to energy loss. Depending on the property, areas may include insulation, windows, doors, ventilation, and HVAC-related components. The findings can help homeowners understand where additional energy evaluation or improvements may be useful.

Deck Inspection

Outdoor decks are exposed to weather and regular use, so their visible condition should not be overlooked. Our deck inspection reviews accessible surfaces, stairs, railings, visible framing, fasteners, and other components for signs of damage, deterioration, instability, or other safety concerns.

Infrared Thermal Inspection

Some temperature differences are difficult to identify through a standard visual inspection. Infrared thermal imaging can provide another way to examine areas of a home. Our infrared inspection may help identify unusual temperature patterns associated with possible moisture, insulation gaps, or electrical hot spots. Thermal imaging findings are evaluated alongside other inspection information and may require additional testing.

Foundation and Structural Inspection

The foundation and structural components provide support for the entire home. We examine accessible and visible areas for conditions such as cracking, movement, deterioration, water concerns, and other signs that may warrant further evaluation. A general home inspection is not a substitute for a structural engineer, but it can help identify visible conditions that deserve closer attention.

Drone Photography Services

Drone photography provides aerial views of roofs, exterior components, and other portions of a property that may be difficult to photograph from the ground.

When conditions allow, aerial photos can supplement inspection documentation and provide another perspective of the property.

Home Safety Inspection

A home inspection can also help identify visible safety concerns throughout a property. We look at accessible areas for conditions that may affect the safe use or maintenance of the home. Depending on the property, findings may involve stairs, railings, electrical components, decks, roof areas, moisture, or other visible conditions.

Annual Home Maintenance Inspection

You do not have to be buying or selling a home to benefit from an inspection. An annual home maintenance inspection can give homeowners a better understanding of the property’s current condition.

Regular inspection can help you identify visible maintenance concerns and prioritize areas that may need repair, monitoring, or additional professional evaluation.
